Chilly Water's Built to Last pilsner doesn't disappoint
This week, we're bringing you a local beer rec for those times when you need something to depend on.
Brew of the week: Built to Last, a delightfully straightforward German pilsner from Chilly Water Brewing Company.
4.7% ABV
$6.50 for 16oz on tap
I picked up a four-pack from Carmel's Niemann Harvest Market for $11.
💭 My thought bubble: Like the name suggests, this is a beer that won't let you down.
Built to Last is light, refreshing and agreeable. Even if you don't absolutely love it, it's extremely hard to not like it.
This beer also made me hungry, but in a good way. The crisp, clean flavor profile makes it the perfect partner for burgers and brats — something I've tested at length.
The intrigue: Today is Bluegrass Jam Session day Chilly Water, an acoustic bash that goes down the first Tuesday of every month at 7pm.
If you go: 719 Virginia Ave.
